Abstract
Although it has been around since 1917, the Virginia Tech Student Branch is anything but an old timer. Attracting members, educating the public about what electrical and computer do and operating the student branch with a modicum of fiscal independence has always been the focus of the student branch sponsors a number of activities that address those goals. The officers added up a new component to their most popular event the student professional awareness conference (S-PAC) which is held at all IEEE Student Branches to promote professionalism in engineering
